Wigg & Co - EU mediation changes

An EU Green Paper was published earlier this year calling for common standards for all of Europe's mediators.

Should Britain allow the European Union to set standards for our mediators?

Is it possible that if British mediators flout minimum EU standards they could be sued by aggrieved parties or clients who think they have a cause of action against them.

Would it mean that mediators will have to take out bigger insurance policies.

If the U.K. adopt EU common standards will U.K. mediators run the risk of being criminalised for flouting regulations even though we regard mediation as consensual and voluntary?
